Description

Professional legal ethics deals with the bench and the practicing bar, and judicial ethics has its own history of development separate from professional ethics for lawyers. The American Bar Association created the Canons of Judicial Ethics in 1924 and has amended and reviewed them multiple times since. In the most recent version of 2007, the Canons became principles of judicial conduct, followed by enforceable black-letter rules. The guide covers the relevant primary and secondary sources of model codes, state resources, judicial ethics opinions, judicial discipline cases, digests and citators, A.L.R., legal encyclopedias, treatises, practice books, legal periodicals, legal newspapers, and websites and blogs.--Publisher.
